Description
Mixed flocks of winter birds are one of fall's most reliable wildlife sights, and once you understand why they form, the behavior becomes impossible to ignore. Learn how flocking helps birds navigate the challenges of shorter days, reduced food sources, and predator pressure as winter settles in. Discover the science behind winter flocking, and find out how species like Black-capped Chickadees, Tufted Titmice, White-breasted Nuthatches, and Downy Woodpeckers benefit from traveling and foraging together.
This program is part of the Autumn Birding Online Series. Each session stands alone, but if you register for the whole series before it starts on October 13, you get all five sessions for the price of four. Other session topics include the science of migration, fall warblers, sparrow ID and more.
Recordings will be sent to registrants after the program.
